27 years ago, I gave away my car and moved to DC to fight for people against powerful interests. That hasn’t changed.
I started as a physicist. I ended up running a federal agency. Now I’m running for Congress because our city deserves sovereignty, our federal workers deserve respect, and our immigrant communities deserve the dignity this country promised them.
This is why I’m running. Read the full story on Substack. Link in bio.
Ranked choice voting is new for a lot of us. Here’s how it works on your ballot:
My name will be in the 5th row. To rank me #1, fill in the bubble in column 1 of my row.
If you’re supporting another candidate first — rank me #2. Your second choice isn’t a backup. It’s a vote that counts when the field narrows. No other candidate in this race will fight harder on your electric bill or know the federal system better when it’s time to move statehood forward.
One more thing: don’t mark my name in any other column. Rank me once, in the column that reflects where I fall on your ballot.
Polls close June 16. ✌️ #gregjaczko4dc #dcdelegate #rankchoicevoting
Trump’s US Attorney just announced she’ll criminally prosecute parents whose kids break DC’s youth curfew. This won’t reduce crime. It won’t lower your bills. It will only intimidate and harass District residents. Enough.
My statement on US Attorney Jennie Pirro’s announcement that her office will begin criminally prosecuting parents whose children violate DC’s youth curfew.
Incarcerated residents are paying the price for DC not having statehood. Some are sitting in federal prisons thousands of miles from their families, even though the law says no more than 500 miles. I ran a federal agency and I know how to make agencies follow the law. As your delegate, that’s exactly what I’ll do. Vote and rank Greg Jaczko on June 16. #gregjaczko4dc
Skyrocketing electricity prices aren’t inevitable — they’re a policy choice. Congress can rein in data center development and make it easier for cities to switch to public power. I know how this system works. I can work within it to fix it.
Vote Greg Jaczko for DC Delegate — June 16. Rank me #1 or #2 ✌️ #gregjaczko4dc
So much of what needs to change in DC doesn’t require new laws. It requires federal agencies that actually do their jobs. I’ve run one of those agencies. I know how they work from the inside. Follow for more. #gregjaczko4dc
DC has said ‘no taxation without representation’ for decades. It’s not just a slogan to me, it’s a promise. No statehood, no federal taxes. #gregjaczko4dc #dcstatehood #notaxationuntilrepresentation
Mail-in ballots go out today to every registered DC voter. This is our first primary using ranked choice voting and your vote matters.
Rank me #1. If I’m not your first choice, rank me #2. There’s only upside. ✌️#gregjaczko4dc #rankchoicevoting
4,000 jobs change with every president. 2 million don’t — and that’s by design.
That system is being dismantled right now. I ran the NRC. I know exactly what these workers do and what it costs when they’re gone.
DC needs a delegate who shows up on day one ready to fight. Vote your values June 16. #gregjaczko4dc #dcdelegate #federalemployees
Tech companies are spending trillions of dollars betting AI will be transformative. To get there, they need an electricity supply that grows with demand. We can’t build it.
Natural gas plants used to take a year to build. Now it’s up to six. New nuclear plants — if they get built at all — won’t come online before the 2030s, and history says they’ll cost more than promised. Renewables could close the gap fastest, but the Trump administration is fighting that buildout instead of accelerating it.
So utilities are extending the life of old coal and nuclear plants. They’re raising rates to cover the new infrastructure. They’re passing the cost to every customer on the grid.
Meanwhile Google, OpenAI, and Microsoft are running the same hype on both sides — telling AI investors the energy is on the way, and telling energy investors the AI demand is locked in. When both stories collapse, each side will point at the other.
DC takes the hit either way.
